Wow! You're fast... :blink:

Is that a mac... or just a mac theme?
It better not be a mac...

You should try IMing him some time. His response speed is unreal! I suspect he uses large amounts of amphetamines And yeah, he is a Mac user

I've heard how superior DVORAK is for a long time but have never actually seen a DVORAK board in real life.

Neat poll!

I have... one of my friends uses it on his laptop; he pried off all the keys and rearranged them into dvorak. It drives me nuts having to hunt 'n peck when I use his computer. Did you know the first line does not say DVORAK as it says QWERTY on qwerty keyboards? I usually end up switching it to qwerty, and I have the keys memorized well enough to type without looking, so I type on a dvorak keyboard in qwerty. :rolleyes:

lol gamehead, I'm going to hire you when I need data entry.

no no, that's what the dumb people always bugging you about something are for. Make 'em type something. takes 'em a long time, but they get it done and don't make you mad.

P.S., new tag on your user... MSFN Dev? What exactly does that mean?

Oh, and gamehead... you crazy mac user, you! :wacko:

iThink you're nuts!

I know that. :rolleyes:

What I was asking was, what does it mean that he is a dev for MSFN? That he develops the forum software? etc.

Right-o! We recently decided to acknowledge some of our most important software developers within the MSFN community by placing them in a new user group. They control their own subforums and their designation helps new members to identify that fact.

The MSFN forum software is called IPB but those folks don't participate in this community as far as I know. More info here.

Thanks but my younger brother can crank out over 120 wpm... :whistle:

I have excuses...my keyboard is brand new and I am still not getting used to it...and I switch between keyboards at work and at home. blah blah but at the end of the day, my brother is a brutally fast typer!
